SENATOR CUPPER PUNCTURES OWN BOOM 1324 Presidential Aspirations of Former Representative in Congress at Low Ebb. By United Frees WASHINGTON, Jan. 16. The boom to make Senator Capper of Kansas, farmer and progressive a presidential candidate In 1924 was punctured today by Capper himself. ‘Td like to see a farmer from the Middle-West President of the United States,” he said In an Interview. “I think It would be a good thing for the country—but not for me. I’ve got & man-sized job here In the Senate for the next few years. I am going to devote my political life to working out a permanent solution of The farmer’s ills. "There la something fundamentally wrong with this agricultural system In the United States. Here a farmer gets only about 34 cents out of every dollar the consumer spends for farm products. In some nations they get as high as 75 cents out of the consumer’s dollar. “There is too much money being wasted between the producer and the consumer. I’m going to find out where that money goes and then I’ll attempt to sweep out that waste by congressional legislation. “That looks bigger to me than being President.” Capper has been repeatedly mentioned as the farm bloc’s candidate for the presidency. His recent purchase of a string of farm papers in the East was regarded by some watchful politicians as a move to provide a strong weapon for his reported presidential candidacy.

Anew traffic code, carrying some changes from the one which was killed by the city council at the end of last year was Introduced at the council meeting last night by Councilman Walter Wise.
